Imperial Hume leads by 12 after 64; Ireland in command at European Nations Cup

Jack Hume is on track for his second win in the space of three weeks after an eight under 64 gave him a huge 12-stroke lead at the halfway stage of the European Nations Cup in Spain.

The Walker Cup star from Naas, who closed with a 64 to win the South African Amateur Strokeplay by a shot from Stuart Grehan at the start of February, leads on eight under 134 with Spain's Mario Galiano (71-77) and Xabier Gorospe (75-73) his nearest rivals on four over 148.
